Hey Guys,

I got the call at 6am this morning, one of my cousins was killed in a car accident last night at around 11.30pm.

We dont have all the details yet but what I know is she was being driven home from a work christmas party and a drunk driver collided with them and killed her. The driver of the other car is in hospital with minor injuries.

Her son, 16 years of age has not had a dad since he was born and his mum was his life. Now he has nobody.

Please, everyone on SAU.. and everyone who reads this, dont drink and drive this holiday season. Its just much easier to catch a cab and not suffer the consequences of either dying, getting injured for the rest of your life.. or in this situation ruining lives of really nice people.

Condolences..

I've found it very hard without my dad around (died Nov. 21 2003, RIP dad..) and my mum and brother are all I have and am thankful for them..My feelings and those of my family reach out to you..

Poor fella, to have never known his dad and now his mum taken from him, near Christmas time too..The drunk bastard will now carry this on his conscience for the rest of his life, killing someone at such a time of year and leaving her only child behind..

Pentae, please seek some counselling for the poor 16-year old guy, or be there for him as his confidant or someone he can speak to, to empty his chest of his sorrows etc. I was suicidal when dad died, the things stopping me from going to the other side was the promise I had made while he was alive that I would take care of the family, and the school counsellors, my teachers, and my mum being there whenever I needed to talk..All in all, it will be a very hard time for this guy, so be there to help him through this pain :(

Merry Christmas, and please don't drink and drive this holiday season :(

That's horrible to hear. People that pay the ultimate sacrifices for someone else complete stupidity.

If you drink and drive, your not a bloody idiot, your a ****en idiot.

Now some poor kid has lost both his parents. Please think of other people's safety before you jump in a car. You might be willing to kill yourself, but others dont need to die.

    • It's unfortunate what Tomei USA has done to Tomei's name in general. I'm very weary of ordering parts from them now. I only order direct from a Japanse source (e.g Nengun). At least their logos are different, so you end up knowing what you have. 
    • Update Issues 5 (plus #4) - 10 After making a claim about issue #4's missing part, DeAgostini Japan sent a whole new issue #4 and it arrived about 2 weeks after that. That was back in early March. It took another 4 weeks to receive issues 5 - 13 though. This update is for issues 5 - 10. Ove the 5 issues the front left suspension and most of the engine have been completed. The quality of the castings and fit of the parts is quite good, it seems better than DeAgostini's BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the Fast & Furious 2 movie, which (to me anyway) doesn't seem to have as tight tolerances or quite as accurate castings.  Each issue has a lot of info about the 1989 - 1993 Skyline range and other Nissan models from that era, but the focus is on the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo and the various racing it did in Japan, Europe (Spa 24hrs) and of course Australia. I've included some text translated with Google Lens in some photos and will add to them if there's anything worth including. 
    • If it's for a SR20, make sure it's not the American Poncams, might as well call them Poocams. Had a set in a friend's car, all scuffed up after a few track days. Like the metallurgy Tomei USA used is junk. Went back to JDM OG Tomei Poncams, no issues till now.   Tomei USA is not the real OG Tomei.   Random rant over, fk the US of A, bunch of c u n t s. 
    • Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.
